Alfalfa Promoted as Profitable Farm Crop
It is a profitable crop that increases farm values and yields extra feed per acre. It serves as a soil enricher and a breuth resister, similar in ease of growth to clover. Start now to grow alfalfa as a practical beginning.
Alfalfa Growth Urged For Profitable Farm Yields
Repeated experiments and real-world results across the west and south prove alfalfa’s high value. It enriches soil, resists drought, and doubles forage yield compared with clover. Doctors advise inoculation where new, plus proper seed bed and manure. Begin small, persist until a good stand is secured.
